I know, we are playing the Niners this weekend,...but we may just being seeing Green Bay in the not so distant future. Hear me out on this as crazy as it may sound. So I live a couple hours from GB so I am forced to watch those guys all the time while waiting for the Cowboys game to come on. Gives me a chance to have a new 2nd favorite team every week! Have watched then a TON! IMO ARod has a frikkin grip like a steel vice. Been watching this game a long time and I have NEVER seen another QB hold onto the football while getting DRILLED like he does. I have seen that guy hold on while getting hit from behind and never seeing it coming more times than I cant count,....arm hanging out there in the wild blue yonder, absolutely smashed from behind and the damn ball never as much as moves a fraction of an inch. Are there times he has fumbled? Hell yeah there are. But way more often than not the ball never moves.
I believe that vice like grip of his is a big reason why he has such pin point accuracy, even on the run. I cant stand the guy, but its TRUE. That guy can drop a ball in the smallest of spaces on the run or not. I think that grip gives him amazing control over the ball. Having said all that,....I have no idea how to exploit it as I am in no way in favor of any dirty play. I dont believe in it at all. But if Our pass rushers can get around an edge and try and take a swipe at that throwing hand in an effort to get him to fumble even though he rarely does? Yep...by all means DO IT! Swipe that hand and take him down,...HARD,...but legally.
